Well the future is here. Google’s ‘Waymo’ company is rolling out sensors into Chrysler Pacifica cars to begin ride-shares as soon as the end of 2017 according to a report in OilPrice.

In demonstration of this fact, Waymo is working on sensor load outs for Chrysler, which will be installed in a fleet of 100 Pacificas and tested in self-driving mode soon. The plan is to use this technology for ride-sharing services by the end of next year.

There is still a lot to do before self-driving cars become truly self-driving, despite Waymo’s own successful test with its self-driving car, which took a legally blind person around Austin, Texas, without a sighted person in the vehicle.

There are challenges including the way of thinking. People are not yet used to this technology, however humans adapt and learn fast. This is a new age. Uber and cab drivers should watch their back, literally.
